Hello, Dag-Erling. You wrote 3 сентября 2013 г., 17:22:56: DES> sshd is just one of many applications in the system. Ooops. I think, have ONE daemon to provide ALL authentication is bad idea. It crashes. After that you could not login via console, sshd, telnet, whatever! Only one way -- reboot server via power button... Not good.

It means, that console and telnet works. ftpd(8) doesn't need such excessive session support (single login via ftp? Are you kidding?). So, only sshd(8) is broken. And change (dramatically) well-known programs (like login(1)) and introduce new subsystem to fix bug (it is really a bug) in sshd? I don't think it is sane way to do things. -- // Black Lion AKA Lev Serebryakov <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-security To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
